Definitions
- E . coli is a nominal inhabitant of the human intestinal tract and is potentially pathogenic, large scale production of products derived from cloned DNA in E . coli may present certain health risks. Even in the case of nonpathogenic strains, E . coli endotoxins are produced which could contaminate the particular polypeptide produced by the organism. E . coli also retains extracellular enzymes in the periplasmic space thereby making isolation and purification of the exogenous polypeptide difficult.
- B . subtilis is non-pathogenic and does not produce potentially contaminating endotoxins.
- B . subtilis excretes into the culture medium the polypeptides produced therein thus making isolation and purification easier. Nonetheless, various disadvantages were also attendant. Among them is plasmid instability once transformed into the host making it extremely difficult to maintain plasmid replication over many culture transfers. Also heterologous DNA is not well maintained in B . subtilis such that the cloned DNA is frequently unexpectedly lost. Further, very few efficient regulatory systems are available for B . subtilis , making its use as an expression vector problematical.
- yeasts With the evolution of the technology, lower eucaryotic hosts such as yeasts were examined.
- yeasts particularly Saccharomyces cerevisiae
- yeast share a greater degree of similarlity with higher eucaryotic organisms as possessing the cellular machinery necessary to carry out various post-translational modifications of the polypeptide produced (e.g., glycosylation) thus enabling production of the mature form of the polypeptide.
- post-translational modifications of the polypeptide produced e.g., glycosylation
- fermentation techniques for yeast are well established thus making commercial scale production of a chosen polypeptide in yeast feasible.
- yeast have also been reported to secrete endogenous polypeptides either into the periplasmic space or into the cellular medium (Schekman et al, 1982).
- Those yeast polypeptides reportedly secreted into the cellular growth medium include the yeast pheromones mating factor ⁇ and a , pheromone peptidase and "killer toxin".
- yeast polypeptides transported into the periplasmic space are invertase, L-asparaginase and the repressible and constitutive forms of acid phosphatase.
- Certain yeast polypeptides are known to be localized in the periplasmic space and also secreted out of the cell.
- yeast are capable of intracellular processing of endogenous polypeptides in a manner analogous to that of mammalian systems has led to increased interest in the genetics of expression and secretion of both endogenous and exogenous polypeptides in yeast.
- Kurjan et al U.S. Patent No. 4,546,082 describe the cloning of the gene for the polypeptide ⁇ -factor which is a secreted polypeptide from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae .
- Mating in yeast appears to be facilitated by such pheromones ("mating factors") that cause arrest of cells of opposite mating type in the G1 phase of the cell division cycle.
- Yeast ⁇ -cells produce the ⁇ -factor which is in two forms, 13 and 12 L-amino acids in length, the latter lacking the amino-terminal Trp residue of the peptide.
- a -factor is produced by yeast a -cells and is comprised of 11 amino acids in length and has two forms which differ in the sixth residue (Leu or Val). Synthesis of ⁇ -factor is said to require cellular RNA and protein synthesis. Thus, based on these observations and by analogy with mammalian peptide hormones, Kurjan et al state that there is support for the proposal that the yeast mating factors are derived by proteolytic processing from a larger precursor molecule. Thus, cloning of the ⁇ -factor structural gene was accomplished and the genetic structure of the precursor was determined. Based on this work it was found that the ⁇ -factor precursor gene comprises four sequences coding for ⁇ -factor, each of which is separated by a spacer nucleotide region.
- the spacer regions provide peptides which are substrates for the yeast proteolytic processing system.
- the resultant fusion polypeptide may be expressed, subjected to the yeast proteolytic processing system and ultimately be secreted from the cell.
- Emr, et al (1983) describe an in-frame fusion of the structural genes encoding ⁇ -factor and invertase ( ⁇ -D-fructofuranoside fructohydrolase). Sites suggested as necessary for intracellular proteolytic processing of the ⁇ -factor precursor were retained and it was found that the chimeric gene directed the synthesis of a high level of active invertase which was secreted within the periplasmic space.
- Brake et al (1984) describe the construction of plasmids containing hybrid genes in which the sequence encoding mature, human epidermal growth factor was joined to various sequences encoding the leader region (prepro- segment) of the precursor of the yeast ⁇ -factor. Said plasmids were used to transform Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, which cells accurately processed the hybrid protein and efficiently secreted mature, biologically active human epidermal growth factor into the medium. Still another gene construct utilizing the ⁇ -factor promoter was reported by Bitter et al (1984).
- the present invention is directed to such an improvement by providing a gene construct of the prepro- coding sequence of yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 tandemly linked to a 103 base pair fragment of the invertase signal sequence.
- Said gene construct is capable of directing extremely high levels of expression of a structural gene encoding a polypeptide of choice when said structural gene is placed immediately downstream of said invertase fragment.
- the present invention is directed to DNA constructs capable of directing a high level of expression of a structural gene in yeast.
- Said DNA constructs comprise the yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 prepro- coding sequence tandemly linked to a 103 base pair region of the yeast SUC2 gene encoding the 34 amino-terminal amino acids of the invertase gene, and a structural gene encoding a polypeptide of choice in reading frame therewith.
- Also disclosed and claimed is a method for increasing the level of expression of a gene encoding a polypeptide of choice by culturing a yeast cell containing said gene in the presence of one or more chloride salts of alkali metals or alkaline-earth metals.
- the DNA constructs of the present invention represent a tripartite gene capable of directing high levels of expression of a structural gene encoding a polypeptide of choice.
- Said tripartite gene includes the prepro- coding sequence of yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 fused in-frame to a 103 base pair segment of the yeast SUC2 gene fragment. Fused immediately downstream of the SUC2 gene fragment is the structural gene encoding the polypeptide of choice.
- the prepro- coding sequence of yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 as used herein means that segment from base 1 through the Hind III cleavage site at base 263 (i.e., GA ⁇ A) of said gene. This is graphically represented in Figure 1. Within this prepro- coding sequence is an ATG translation initiation codon as well as a putative signal peptide cleavage site at amino acid 20 (i.e., ala-x).
- the functional native prepro- coding sequence extends from base 1 through base 249.
- the region from base 250 through base 263 represents a portion of the first of the spacer nucleotide regions immediately preceding each of the four coding regions encoding the ⁇ -factor precursor molecule.
- prepro- coding sequence is meant to include said portion of said spacer nucleotide region from base 250 through base 263.
- the prepro- coding sequence of yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 may be obtained from the cloned ⁇ -factor precursor gene such as described by Kurjan et al, 1982 as follows.
- a clone bank containing random genomic fragments of yeast DNA is inserted into the high copy number plasmid YEp13. This plasmid contains the origin of replication of the yeast 2 ⁇ replicon and is present in 30-50 copies per cell.
- a yeast strain (such as a mat alpha-2 leu 2) is then transformed with plasmid DNA from the clone bank and Leu+ transformants are selected, pooled and plated on a selective medium lacking leucine.
- the colonies capable of secreting ⁇ -factor are screened by halo formation on a lawn of a cells.
- the gene responsible for halo formation is located on a 1.7 kilobase (kb) Eco R1 fragment of a producing plasmid. Said Eco R1 fragment is inactivated by cleavage with Hind III suggesting that the Hind III sites may be within the gene responsible for ⁇ -factor production.
- the results of Maxam-Gilbert sequencing shown in Figure 1 describe a Hind III site at base 263 making cleavage and isolation of the prepro- coding sequence from the remainder of the coding region for the ⁇ -factor precursor molecule convenient and conventional in the art.
- yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 To the prepro- coding sequence for yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 is fused in-frame a 103 base pair segment of the yeast SUC2 gene.
- This SUC2 gene fragment encodes the 34 amino-terminal amino acids of the enzyme invertase which includes 15 of the 19 signal sequence amino acids and one potential glycosylation site (asn-X-thr).
- the nucleotide sequence for this fragment is shown in Figure 2.
- the SUC2 gene has been cloned from a YEp13 yeast library and its entire nucleotide sequence has been determined. See, Carlson et al (1982) and Taussig et al (1983).
- the SUC2 gene fragment as used in the present invention is readily obtained from the cloned gene by Bal 31 restriction enzyme digestion of the amino-terminal segment of the cloned SUC2 DNA. This fragment may then be ligated by standard techniques to the yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 prepro- coding sequence.
- the structural gene encoding the polypeptide of choice is fused immediately downstream of the SUC2 gene fragment. Such fusions are accomplished by standard ligation techniques as disclosed, for example, in Maniatis et al (1982).
- Said structural gene will typically, though not necessarily, be heterologous to yeast and may encode a procaryotic or eucaryotic polypeptide such as growth hormones, somatostatin, epidermal growth factor, luteinizing hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, relaxin, secretin, oxytocin, insulin, vasopressin, renin, calcitonin, hematopoietic factors such as erythropoietin, various lymphokines, immunoglobulins, albumins, interferons, endorphins, calf chymosin, xylose isomerase, ⁇ -amylase, ⁇ -galactosidase and the like.
- the tripartite gene thus formed is then incorporated into a transformation vector so as to stably introduce the resulting construct into the yeast host.
- This may be accomplished, for example, by either cleaving said transformation vector with a restriction enzyme that produces cohesive termini complementary to the tripartite gene or by modifying the termini of either the vector or tripartite gene so that they are complementary, allowing the complementary sequences to anneal and then ligating the resulting transformation vector.
- Suitable transformation vectors include those capable of the stable incorporation of the tripartite gene in yeast and the ultimate expression of the structural gene encoding the polypeptide of choice.
- Such vectors include, for example, plasmids pY ⁇ E, pYc ⁇ E, pJY6, YEp13, YEp24, YCp19 (available from the American Type Culture Collection), and the like.
- Said transformation vector is then incorporated into the host yeast cell of choice.
- the specific yeast selected is not critical to the invention and may be any of those yeast commonly used as hosts for the expression of cloned genes such as various species of Saccharomyces and mutants thereof, particularly Saccharomyces cerevisiae and mutants thereof. Transformation of said yeast host with the vector incorporating the tripartite gene may be affected by conventional methodologies such as, for example, those described by Ito et al (1983). The resulting transformants are then cultured under conditions facilitating expression of the structural gene encoding the polypeptide of choice, said conditions similarly being conventional in the art.
- chloride salts of alkali metals or alkaline-earth metals increase gene expression to a level significantly higher than otherwise achieved in the absence of said chloride salts.
- Such salts include mono- and divalent salts such as sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcuim chloride and the like.
- the salt will be an alkali metal chloride and most preferably will be sodium chloride or potassium chloride.
- the chloride salt is present in the culture medium in an amount sufficient to increase the level of expression of the structural gene encoding the polypeptide of choice from the tripartite gene without otherwise having detrimental effects on the cultured cells.
- this amount represents a concentration in the culture medium of preferably from about 100 millimolar (mM) to about 1 molar (M), more preferably from about 200 mM to about 800 mM. Specific optimal amounts of any such salts may be readily ascertained by conventional methodologies.
- the resulting expression product when secreted into the culture medium may be harvested directly from said medium or, alternatively, when said expression product is maintained intracellularly (as in the periplasmic space, for example) the cells may be lysed by treatment with enzyme (e.g., zymolase) and the product harvested by centrifugation, for example.
- enzyme e.g., zymolase
- the isolated polypeptide may be subsequently purified by conventional techniques including filtration, chromatography, electrophoresis, dialysis, solvent extraction and the like.
- a tripartite gene encoding the enzyme ⁇ -galactosidase and present on plasmid pJS12 was prepared as graphically represented in Figure 3.
- Plasmid pCY17 a bacterial plasmid containing the yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 structural gene (and prepro- coding sequence) is prepared as described by Kurjan et al, 1982 and U.S. Patent 4,546,082. Said plasmid was digested with restriction endonucleases Eco R1 and Hind III to render an 1100 base pair (bp) fragment extending from the Eco R1 site (950 bp upstream from the AUG initiation codon for the yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 coding region) to the Hind III site located immediately downstream of the prepro- coding sequence. This fragment, which contains the yeast mating factor ⁇ -1 prepro- coding sequence was isolated by chromatography and electroelution.
- the yeast cloning vehicle pCK806 containing a SUC2-lacZ fusion is prepared as described by Emr et al, 1984.
- Said cloning vehicle was Eco R1 and Hind III digested and agarose gel purified to yield an 8.5 kb fragment.
- Said fragment contains the yeast 2 ⁇ replicon, URA3 gene and pBR322 sequences which encode the E . coli lacZ structural gene coding for ⁇ -galactosidase (absent the coding sequence for the eight amino-terminal amino acids thereof), said lacZ structural gene fused in-frame with the 103 base pair fragment of the yeast SUC2 gene (including a BamH 1 linker at the 5 ⁇ end, as noted in Figure 3.
- Plasmid pJS12 has been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection and has been given acession number 67210.
- the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae JRY188 (MAT ⁇ , sir3-8 ts , ura3-52, leu2, trp, his4, rmel) were transformed with plasmid pJS12 by a slight modification of the method of Ito, et al (1983) as follows. 10 milliliters (ml) of a fresh logarithmic phase culture (2 x 107 cells/ml) was centrifuged at 7000 revolutions per minute (rpm) at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- the resulting pellet was washed once with a buffer containing 10 mM Tris HCl, pH 7.5 (also containing 1 mM EDTA and 100 mM lithium acetate) and was then suspended in 0.1 ml of the same buffer followed by incubation for 60 minutes at 30°C.
- Plasmid DNA i.e., pJS12
- pJS12 Plasmid DNA was added to the yeast cells to a final concentration of from 1 to 10 microgram ( ⁇ g) in the presence of 50 ⁇ g salmon sperm DNA and the cells were then incubated for 30 minutes at 30°C.
- yeast minimal medium i.e., 0.67% Difco yeast nitrogen base without amino acids, containing 2% glucose
- histidine i.e., 0.67% Difco yeast nitrogen base without amino acids, containing 2% glucose
- Plasmid-containing JRY188 cells were selected and grown at 37°C in a shaker flask at 300 rpm. Saturated cultures were then diluted 1:100 in fresh medium (as described above) and grown at 25°C up to the desired optical density (A600) units.
- ⁇ -galactosidase activity was determined as described by Miller, J. (1972). 0.2 ml of O-nitrophenyl- ⁇ -galoctoside (4 mg/ml) was added to the above incubation mixture. When the solution turned light yellow, the reaction was stopped by the addition of 0.5 ml of 1 M Na2CO3 and the exact duration of the reaction was noted. The cells were spun down at 10,000 rpm and the optical density (OD) of the clear supernatant at 420 nanometers (nm) was recorded.
- OD optical density
- One unit of ⁇ -galactosidase activity represents that amount of the enzyme that hydrolyzes 1 nanomole (nM) of O-nitrophenyl- ⁇ -galoctoside per minute at 28°C.
- the ⁇ -galactosidase activity as assayed above for the JRY188 transformants carrying plasmid pJS12 was 198 units per ⁇ g of protein for cells grown to an A600 density of 1.0.
- Plasmid pJS212 was transormed into Saccharomyces cerevisiae JRY188 and cultured as described previously. The ⁇ -galactosidase was isolated and the activity of the enzyme was measured.
- plasmid pJS212 which lacks the SUC2 gene fragment produced a ⁇ -galactosidase activity of only 77 units per ⁇ g of protein.
- the presence of the SUC2 gene fragment in the tripartite gene carried on plasmid pJS12 was capable of inducing a nearly 3-fold increase in enzyme activity over that produced with plasmid pJS212, i.e., a difference between 198 and 77 units per ⁇ g of protein, for the constructs respectively.
- Example 2 In order to show the effect of NaCl on protein expression levels, the protocol set forth in Example 1 was repeated for both plasmids pJS12 and pJS212. However, the transformed cells were grown in the presence of 400 mM NaCl added to the culture medium. ⁇ -galactosidase activity was assayed as described above and for cells transformed with pJS12, the activity level was 1015 units per ⁇ g of protein. For those cells transformed with plasmid pJS212, the activity level was 331 units per ⁇ g of protein. It can be clearly seen that the use of NaCl increased expression levels of ⁇ -galactosidase when both plasmids were utilized. Interestingly, even the expression level from pJS212 (lacking the SUC2 gene fragment) increased as a result of the incorporation of NaCl in the culture medium. A similar increase was observed when KCl was used in place of NaCl.
